Post-script….
The first year students piled into the great hall and waited anxiously to be sorted. Student after student had the sorting hat placed upon their heads and were sorted into their houses.
"Lily Potter!"Professor Lovegood shouted.
Lily stepped forward and sat on the chair situated near the front of the hall. The hat was placed upon her head.
"Gryffindor!!" The hat bellowed and the Gryffindor table roared with applause.
Lily beamed and joined her fellow Gryffindor's at their house table.
Snow stood trembling next to Leroy.
"Snow Malfoy!" Lovegood cried.
She felt Leroy's hand reach out and grasp hers tightly before he pulled it away and she moved forward to the sorting hat.
The hat seemed to think long and hard about wear to put Snow as it ummed and aahed…
"You are a difficult one my girl. Conniving and strong as a Slytherin, Brave and honourable as a Gryffindor, Caring and thoughtful as a Hufflepuff, yet as quick and intelligent as a Ravenclaw… What to do what to do... "The hat said softly so as only Snow could hear.
"Gryffindor!!" The hat finally decided and Snow squealed in delight as the Gryffindor table once again broke out in applause as Snow joined Lily.
"Leroy Weasley!" Luna Lovegood shouted, and Leroy made his way to the stool. The hat was placed upon his head, and it began to laugh.
"You cannot be serious my boy!"
"Please, please put me in Gryffindor…" Leroy whispered.
"You would make a mighty good Hufflepuff with a heart like yours…" The hat seethed.
"No I would make a mighty good Gryffindor!" Leroy said in angry hushed tones.
Once again the hat chuckled.
"You are right. You're strong in heart and mind. Just as a Gryffindor should be." The hat said softly.
"Gryffindor!!" The hat bellowed and Leroy let out a sigh of relief. Lily and Snow squealed and jumped in delight as Gryffindor once again roared with applause.
"Let the feast begin!" The headmaster shouted and the tables were automatically filled with delicious mouth watering dishes.
"This is fantastic!!" Lily gushed as she piled her plate with mince pies and apple sauce.
Snow giggle at her friend and turned to her other side to look at Leroy who was grinning.
"What?" Snow said slyly.
"Nothing." He grinned. Leroy took her hand in his under the table before whispering softly.
"Just glad I'm with you."
